TWO POSTULATES OF HYPNOSIS
1. Unwavering belief precedes some but not all healing and change, and lack of unwavering belief can precede some but not all failure in healing and change.
2. The practitioner of change and healing plays a role in the likelihood of healing or change in the client or patient.
This can include but is not limited to a practitioners experience, education and operator attitude and expectancy.

QUOTATIONS
Pantanjali
When you are inspired by some great purpose,
some extraordinary project,
all of your thoughts break their bonds:
your mind transcends limitations,
your consciousness expands in every direction and you find yourself in a new, great and wonderful world.
Dormant forces, faculties and talents become alive and you discover yourself to be a greater person than you
ever dreamed yourself to be.
Japanese Proverb
If you understand everything, you must be misinformed.

Humankind has not woven the web of life.
We are but one thread within it.
Whatever we do to the web, we do to ourselves.
All things are bound together.
All things connect.
Mark Twain
Anger is an acid that can do more harm to the vessel in which it is stored than to anything on which it is poured.

Lao Tzu "The Way of Life"
There is no need to run outside
For better seeing,
Nor to peer from a window.
Rather abide
At the center of your being;
For the more you leave it, the less you learn.
Search your heart and see
If he is wise who takes each turn:
Albert Einstein
There are two ways to live your life.
One is as though nothing is a miracle.
The other is as though everything is a mirac
There is no need to run outside
For better seeing,
Nor to peer from a window.
Rather abide
At the center of your being;
For the more you leave it, the less you learn.

Zen
"Master, do you know the secret of life?"
"Yes I do."
"Will you tell it to me?"
"No"
"Why not?"
"It's a secret."
Frank Herbert "Dune"
I must not fear.
Fear is the mind-killer.
Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
I will face my fear.
I will permit it to pass over me and through me.
And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
Where the fear has gone there will be nothing.
Only I will remain.

J.P. Morgan
The first step toward getting somewhere is to decide
that you are not going to stay where you are.
The Dhammapada (Sayings of the Buddha)
The thought manifests as the word;
The word manifests as the deed;
The deed develops into habit;
And habit hardens into character;
So watch the thought and its ways with care,
And let it spring from love
Born out of concern for all beings...
As the shadow follows the body as we think, so we become.

MYTHS
Myth #1. The Hypnotist will be able to control my mind.
Fact: No one can control your mind, unless you let them. Your Hypnotherapist will give you suggestions that you want to be given, based on the Pre-Hypnotic Interview. At no point during your session will you lose control of your mind. If you hear a suggestion that you don’t agree with, or don’t understand, your subconscious mind will automatically reject it.
Myth #2. I will be made to perform embarrassing acts, such as bark like a dog, or walk like a duck.
Fact: This assumption is based on Stage Hypnotism and Hollywood fiction. The truth is, these people volunteer to act on stage, and they allow themselves to participate in silly suggestions. Hypnotherapy is a serious process of self-improvement, not entertainment.
